Can't chainsaw they're not my trees

 

I've already tried the growing stuff in 5 gallon pails. It's a no go I just do not have enough sunlight to grow anything except bleeding hearts, astillbe and pachysandra.

 

You are allowed to cut back trees growing in a neighbors yard if they hang over your property line.  It's best to let them know what you are doing ahead of time, as a courtesy, but there ain't a dang thing they can do to stop you.  I got tired of a neighbors tree hammering my roof with walnuts, so I looked into it and it is 100% legal.

I couldnt help but to read this thread. I stress about my grass all the time, and every year in July lol. My grass went dormant in mid-july to like early august and i always go nuts about it. So i up the watering to combat the high temps(as well as the water bill) and then when it cools off(now) it goes crazy. I could cut it twice a week, but i like slightly longer/fuller grass. Now, I wont take credit for my lawn being decent because i use a lawn guy for for seed and fertilizer applications. i just have to regulate water and mow it. But it still goes dormant for a couple weeks in the summer nonetheless.

 

It does look a little burned and thirsty but i wouldn't be too worried. Just water it normally and if you want to be proactive... aerate and seed early next month(fescue and kentucky blue). water every day for 2 weeks, then you can probably cut back the watering to every other day.
